No need to buy a whole new charger. Just use some electrical tape like this to block the light. It’s been a lifesaver for me in the night as any small amount of light drives me crazy when trying to sleep.
I designed a very low cost aeroponic timer in the mid 1990s when I was an electrician and used to make them for people word of mouth.
Even with a mechanical relay, I've gotten around 3 million cycles so far at about 3 seconds on, 90 seconds off with a 20 watt pump (changed pump a few times) in a low pressure system.
I made some adjustable units but most people went back to about 3 seconds on, 90 seconds off.
If you google aeroponic pump controller mine is the first to pop up in the Google results with an old Flickr account. Schematics and how it's wired up are shown. It costs less than $10 if you can scrounge up a 12 volt power supply and a power cord.

The pump cycle unit from the OP would be easier to make if one isn't familiar with basic electronics and soldering.
Be sure you have the proper ground if needed. Some pumps, like the Little Giant series, are designed for 3 prong receptacles so you should not use a 2 prong plug with it.
Anytime you wire stuff up in a metal box or something with any exposed metal parts it should also be ground bonded unless it specifically says it's double insulated. Look for a square inside a square symbol. The OP's timer looks good to go with the PVC box and 2 prongs.
The only change I would make is to use Scotch Super 33+ electrical tape which is good for higher temperatures and has a far superior glue that will also hold up better under higher humidity. I wouldn't trust anything else in a long term wrap job and only use cheap tape to temporarily hold stuff together. Home Depot and the like will have it.
I agree, build you own kit. Below is my take. Know that some of those tools are not for every day use in networking, but who can resist getting more tools? Also, if you get all of these I realize it will be over $200. So, just use this list as a guide not a definitive list.

Yes.
Audio rattle is still there under Windows 10 and is because of Waves Maxx audio or whatever bundled bloatware comes with the realtek driver. Under any Linux distro, there is no rattle.

The other things you mentioned are not really software issues - they are quality control issues. No BIOS update is going to fix horrible thermal paste jobs, or bad heat removal engineering.
The 9570 should be viewed as a "some assembly required" sort of device. It has great hardware at a great price, but is poorly put together. However, on the upside, it is a profoundly easy system to disassemble (just get any old computer/cellphone repair kit with a T5 star bit). My advice is, if you buy it, do so before you even boot it the first time. There are dozens and dozens of posts on both Reddit and elsewhere showing how to fix the heat removal problems in the 9560/9570. My approach was:

After doing this my temps hang out around 37 idle, around 50-something under heavy load. Previously I was ready to send it back but didn't have the heart to because it was such a good set of hardware for the money. I was a little intimidated ripping it apart at first, but it was well worth it and quite simple. PM me if you want any further guidance. I have a lot of experience using Linux on this machine as well and it is thoroughly documented all over the internet, so if you want to go that route there's lots of help available too.
Well, I don't think there are really that many specialized tools the average user would need. I guess if you want to do some minor modifications or sleeve your psu, you would really benefit from some specialty tools. Generally speaking, I think nearly everyone would benefit from:
total: $15.60
It goes without saying that you should also have a Phillips screwdriver, but who doesn't have one of those around anyway? Of course, there are some extras you might want if you're messing with your psu cables (like if you're sleeving them or whatever), installed and reinstalling coolers, I don't know. It is all stuff I've used with my PC at one time or another.
total: $48.61
I don't know why you'd really want that ultra-mega-deluxe $49 kit I put together, unless you're certain you will be modding your pc. If you want to be all hardcore you could get a soldering iron just for your pc, but I wouldn't recommend doing that unless you already have experience. Seriously though, everyone should get some cable ties and compressed air.
